In my last post I have been looking into “Is Probux a Scam?”. This time I will look into “Why Bux Sites become Scam?”

During these last 2 years many sites have come and go. Many have claimed they would be the new Probux, make users gain thousands, etc, but all they did was make many people lose money.
Out of the hundreds open in last couple of years only few remain open after more than 6 months of their existence.


But why does this happen? There are several reasons for this but mainly is that most are trying to copy probux model, without understand that they shouldn’t do it. Why shouldn’t they, you ask?

• Direct Referrals Limit: Almost all the new sites allow only a few number of Direct Referrals to their members, this will make people promote less the sites, what will make the Admin of the sites have to spend much more money in promotion trying to get members. probux only have imposed limits after the site was already with a couple of million members, as so not so much was needed to spend in promotion.

• Instant Payments: We all love to receive our money instantly, but this brings many problems to the sites as it demands constant cash flow, plus it will make much more easier to cheaters to get paid as there are no manual check of their account before the payment is sent and on the contrary of probux that have a highly expensive and advanced security system, these sites normally have poorly effective ones.


There are more reasons to the fail of those sites and not all are related to the copy of probux system but these are the ones that normally have more impact.
So as you can see what at first may seem a good idea that it is to follow the model of work of probux is not necessarily a good choice.
What raises an interesting question: “probux is not a Scam, but how good or how bad is probux for the PTC World?” Something we will look into next time here in “probux Scam”
